Unit 2 Summative: “How are humans, in the place you’re visiting, currently and historically changing their natural environment?”
In your college history class, you have been selected by your professor to go on an international trip during fall break. The trip is all-expenses paid (hotels, meals, flights, etc.) However, in order to receive the grant money, your professor requires you to complete a short report answering the following question:
“How are humans, in the place you’re visiting, currently and historically changing their natural environment?”
Your professor has already assembled primary and secondary documents about the place that you choose to visit; it’s up to you to analyze them. Using the documents, write one CEA paragraph explaining how humans are currently changing the environment; then write one CEA paragraph giving historical background about how the ancient civilization there changed the environment.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.WHST.9-10.1.A: Introduce precise claim(s)...and create an organization that establishes clear relationships among the claim(s), reasons, and evidence.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.WHST.9-10.2.B: Develop the topic with well-chosen, relevant, and sufficient facts.
